Check the Microsoft licensing policy or consult with your software supplier for details.

If you want to use a custom database server:

oVerify you have a supported database server and that it is properly configured (SQL Server or MySQL Server).

oVerify that the new database server is present in your network and make sure you have access to it on your local/remote server.

If you want to install the ESET PROTECT Web Console using the ESET PROTECT All-in-one installer, make sure to install the Web Console prerequisites (supported versions of Apache Tomcat and Java).
